I have an eye for spelling and grammar flaws too, Jim. But at this stage of life the need to correct anyone can be so belittling. Do you do this in your everyday world? I hope you are compensated. (perhaps the evil eye)

DD he started with me questioning my education because I spelled a word wrong. Now I say thanks and he insults me again typical liberal projection. I don’t pay to post on this sub stack to be insulted especially by Jim. Really thinking of exiting this sub stack permanently. I don’t need this aggravation.
This is what Dr. Malone goes thru every day. He doesn't need the aggravation either. Don't let one small minded control freak ruin your contribution, It's obvious that a lot of people benefit from your posts. Let that be your stamina.
I know Dr. Malone goes through much worse than this piddly BS but it still makes it not worth doing it for me. I’m not getting paid for this. Years back I played hockey on a team with a bunch of friends at a sports complex in Hingham Ma. They would put dozens of leagues together, each team would pay and let’s say every Thursday night at 7 we would have a game against another team in this time slot. There were probably 8 or so teams. When we first started playing we were pretty bad, but over several years we became very good, winning many championships (big deal right). I was definitely a bit older than most so over some years teams got younger.
One game I was skating back toward our defensive end and a young kid for no reason slammed me right across my back with his stick, not provoked by me at all. It actually took me a few seconds to realize what happened. I turned around and grabbed this little punk and proceeded to smash him off the ice on his back again and again and again until the referees were finally able to tear me off him. As I was slamming this kid off the ice I told him I’m not here for this, I’m not getting paid for this either. I was actually paying for this aggravation??? Honestly I wasn’t that great on skates but I just wanted to get some exercise and stay in shape, and gave some fun. I certainly didn’t want to be slashed across my back and want to kill this kid.
I kind of thought of this when Jim first insulted me, sarcastically questioning my education because in a bit of anger responding to his insulting reply to my post I misspelled a word. Well after the young punk slashed me across my back and I slammed him off the ice several dozen times, I began to think why am I paying for this aggravation? I decided it really wasn’t worth playing hockey there any longer.
Honestly DD I put a lot of time into my posts here believe it or not. I’m paying to read everyone’s posts and comment myself. But I’m not going to pay to be insulted by a “man ???” that adds nothing to this sub stack. I’ve seen him in action. He never actually makes a post himself, he just replies to people usually to get a rise out of someone. He even said that’s his goal. Well I’m sure my comment will get him going on an insulting rant again but that’s ok. This probably doesn’t matter much, it may even make some happy, but I’m seriously beginning to question why I’m here???
James, Well, from my perspective it's to uplift others. This has moved out of the realm of the ordinary. I totally hear what you are saying and have had the same thought myself and had to remove one of my posts, I was so disappointed. You are entering the realm of the "bodhisattva". Only the few get to play.
Now, perhaps you could check out his name calling directed at me which is by order of magnitude, way worse. He actually might learn from me, whereas he has nothing to teach me, he has nothing but name calling. Look it up.
I already know, he knows too. The need for playground bullies is way over, lets give everyone a break. James has worked on his delivery more than most. We started out as you have and have ended up in a completely different place. This is the true meaning of successful and healing communication. P. S. He does have something to teach you... I can start with humility.

Ditto that DD!
I stopped getting emails from sub stack so I can’t edit my comments…..

I like to read your responses James Goodrich , thank you .
As do I, you are very insightful. Thank you!
Thank You Brandon!!

I’ll have to look that one up!!
Meditation!!! Yes I have been…..
James, please don't go! You can put on your bodhisattva hat . . .
Thank you for sticking up for Mr. Goodrich.
